Enthralled - Demo Revision 2
This a demo of my song Enthralled. The premise of the song is moving out of a slave mentality incurred by abusive relationships into a mentality of ruling your own life. Enthralled by James Olin Oden How does a thrall become a queen? How can a slave learn to lead? Every bit of freedom helps.…

The Silence
The Silence by James Olin Oden There is no crueler sound, At least that I have found, than silence between two lovers, It echoes ever on, under each and every song, it lies a constant murmur. The dead have more to say, though within the grave they lay, their communion so much the clearer. And as...

Calavera Girl
Calavera Girl By James Olin Oden Some say the winter Comes in early November En diá de los muertos A new love is born Calavera girl you move me Calavera girl you moved me No season lasts forever, Our winter only four months, But I'd lay with you forever, Holding back springs blooming, Calavera…

You're Not Her
A demo of a song I wrote to describe what might be the feelings of someone who having unwilling gone through a break up finds that no other partner will do because they keep comparing others to the one that left. You’re Not Her By James Olin Oden (chorus) I’d hold your hand, but it’s not hers…

The Worst Thing
This is a song about that moment your partner decides something unilaterally that effects both of you, but in which you know you will have no say. The Worst Thing By James Olin Oden I could hear it in your voice, I could see it in your eyes, The resolution of your heart, A conversation I’d be...

Love Again Somehow
Love Again Somehow (demo) By James Olin Oden I’ve been running down the road, And I can’t seem stop, It's not quite clear, What it is I'm running from. And I do not know, Where these roads may lead. I’m a running ragged, I'm mighty haggard, I'm a ball of misery. (chorus) Won't you help me, To…

Who Are You (Mórrígan)
This is a demo of a song about our desire for war, how we are drawn to it against our own best interests. It is also a song about being drawn to a mate that might not be the best for you. Embedded in it is a bit of the Cattle Raid of Cooley, an old Irish legend. Certainly there are subtexts when...

The New Lord Of Flies (work in progress)
There are those who choose to use what talent they have to criticize and judge others, to tear down their works, and to try to control them and manipulate them. This song is about these folks and their petty fiefdoms atop the dung heap. Concerning execution, I'm still learning to play it, and...

You Struck Me
A rough demo of You Struck Me, a song about finding love when not looking for it. You Struck Me Out of Nowhere By James Olin Oden I was traveling along, didn’t mean to cause harm, Keeping my own way, When you struck me out of nowhere, You struck out of nowhere. Was a one man band, Just trying to...

And We'll Have No Regrets
A new song I'm working on. Actually the lyrics were written years ago and I found them recently. Tim Smith, a fellow musician, has been working on the lyrics with me, so at this point its as much his song as mine: And We’ll Have No Regrets By James Olin Oden If you’ll but ask, I’ll sing you a…

Nancy McFarlanes (The Twinkle in Ricky's Eye)
This is a quick recording with less than stellar performance of a reel I wrote. The name is the name of our Mayor in Raleigh. Why was there a twinkle in Ricky's eye; well you'd have to ask him.

Your Eyes
New song I've been working on. Here are the lyrics: Your eyes, your eyes, I see them in the night, Like the stars they truly delight, A spoken whisper dispelling fright, Before them no fear can stand. Your smile your smile, reflected in your eyes, Before its gaze no trembling may arise, In great...

We Bring the Summer In
When I first stood at the Cliffs of Moher, I did what I do in high places and pulled out my whistle and began to play an extemporaneous tune. When I was done a lady walked up and thanked me for playing what she said was a sad and very appropriate tune. I was a little confused, but confusion…

Beneath The Song
This is a demo quickly recorded at the point I could mostly play and sing the song. Here are the lyrics, mostly adhered to in the recording: Beneath the Song by James Olin Oden Deeper than reality Farther than our eyes can see, Hidden beneath the stories and the songs I see your beauty, So…
